Forget glass slippers... this time she's wearing cowboy boots!
Ella has grown used to the casual cruelty of her stepsisters, the complete control her wicked stepfather exerts, and the exasperating way the birds and the mice keep bothering her while she's trying to do her (extensive) daily chores. But with the big July Fourth celebration coming up in Everland, she's determined to make her sisters the prettiest dresses possible so that they'll finally get married and move out of her life. But she doesn't count on a chance meeting with a handsome shopkeeper...
Having lost a leg at Gettysburg, Ian Crowne knows that he's no princely catch. He's got his store and his dogs, so he's satisfied...until the day when an enigmatic stranger captures his imagination and his heart. Now they're both dreaming of each other and wishing on stars, and the celebration is only days away...

From InD'Tale Magazine:
"There are only so many ways one can retell the Cinderella story. Fortunately for us, Ms. Lee impresses with her ability to carve this story into her own, adding twists and unique situations to make it anything but boring. While pleasantly free of violence and profanity, there is just enough emotional pull and mentions of physical arousal to keep readers fanning themselves. It deals with real issues such as prejudices, animal cruelty, the scars and horrors of war, overcoming hardship and physical disabilities, and forced servitude—all while the author melts hearts with her sweet story-telling abilities. A marvelously delightful treat for any fan of pioneer-style romances, and a hugely recommended read!"
The Everland series has a Heat Level of 1/5 (suitable for all audiences)
